In the after- moon Cox put up a harder fight, but | was, unable to cut down the .lead rolled up by O'Teli on the first nine holes. O'Tell had reached the turn 4 up against Cox. But much of the real interest in the tourney over the picturesque Severn River layout naturally cen- tered in the play of Mackenzie and, to a lesser degree, George Voigt. The ‘Washingtonians present have been pulling for this pair to come through in ‘their respective brackets so they may come together in the finald to- morrow afternoon. This is because there are those who are not so sure which of the two de- serves ‘the title of amateur links king in the District of Columbia; de- spite the fact that the brilliant young Columbia Country Club divot lifter was picked on the American Walker cup team and is looked upon everywhere as one of the ranking amateurs of the United States. Roesch Presses Mackenzie. In the first round Mackenzie coast- ed along to win, 5 and 4, from Nor- man D. Frost, a fellow-Washingto. nian. But in the afternoon it was a ewhat different story, with’ ¥rank h, also of Washington, threat- ening to knock the dope into a dozen cocked hats. So seriousiy did Roesch menace the ‘Walker cup lad ‘that Roland was forced to come to the turn 1 down. Over that first nine it had been a see- saw struggle, and on the ninth it was Roland’s turn to go down, a thing he aid when he topped his drive and lost the hole. Starting the homeward journey, they halved the holes until they reached the 216-yard thirteenth. Here Roesch presented his rival the hole by kicking his ball into the cup. Then they halved the fourteenth and fifteenth and were all square, with byt three holes remaining to be played. Then Mackenzie stepped out and clicked off a birdle 2 on the. one-shot sixteenth through the medium of a 25-foot putt. The seventéenth, a dog-leg with the bend to the left, almost lured Mac- kenzie into dropping his small ad- vantage. However, Roesch wasn't ?hle to take advantage of the open- ng, and Roland made such a splendid recovery from his mistake that he was | all corked and primed when Roesch made his error. Wins on Seventeenth. On hia tee shot on this hole Mac- kenzie elected to try & short cut over the elhow by means of lifting his ball over the trees in the bend. He didn’t t quite far enough, however, and §is vall Innded in a grassy ditch, Then he showed the golf of which he is capable by getting out of his diMculty nicely, getting on in three and taking the orthodox two putts for his 5. The shot that lost Roesch this hole and brought the match to & close was one involving a misjudgment. of-dis- tance, He was over the carpet on his third, and after getting back had to take two putts.
